Rose Bowl

Cross Regional Regatta

1/3-1/4

NUST sent five sailors to California for our first regatta in the big ‘26! Hosted by USC, the conditions were not typical of the sunny south-western coast. Instead there were “grey skies and rain showers rolling through,” making “the racing intense with short courses that made every start feel high-stakes” says freshman Rowan Spates, second in on the right. However, beyond the rain, “the best part was just the quality team bonding, nothing brings a crew together like shared snacks and strategy talks.”

Jeremy McIntyre Memorial Regatta

Cross Regional Regatta

2/21-2/22

The weekend of February 21st and 22nd, seven sailors representing NUST went to team race at the Jeremy McIntyre Memorial Regatta hosted by Stanford! Conditions were sunny, with medium wind conditions on the first day and light to medium wind conditions on the second. And, the team had a great chance to practice working together on the water, as freshman Gavin Eskilson, first on the left, said “We couldn’t wait to get back on the water after a long winter. This was the first time our three boats have raced together as a team, and I was proud of how quickly we built chemistry on the water. Facing tough competition, we learned a lot, and I’m really excited to see what we can do in the spring.”
